Tropical plants evolve faster than their temperate relatives: a case from the bamboos (Poaceae: Bambusoideae) based on chloroplast genome data
The evolutionary speed hypothesis (ESH) states that the molecular evolutionary rates of plants in the warm areas are higher than that in the cool areas. Nevertheless, largely due to the scarcity of molecular data from lower taxonomic lineages, ESH remains elusive in plants. In this study, we compreh...
